Here I'm creating a neutral collage with a pop of color. I'm using gelli prints I've recently made in black and white and some neutral green gold shade paper that were clean up sheets. Scabs included.

This is a quick collage that is a series of rectangles in various shapes and sizes. It's a great practice exercise for composition.

  • Thank you for showing this. I love the symmetrical aspect and the pops of red against the black and white.

    Just a suggestion about the deli paper…while it‘s still wet you can carefully scrape away the part that stands out too much with a craft knife. It can be a bit tedious but it works..😊

    I learned so much from this video. As an artist new to collage it was super helpful to me. Thank you
  • i've bought deli paper from amazon & a grocery store. both were less transparent than tissue. i like tissue paper from the dollar tree. it disappears when glued down, no matter what glue i use.
  • I love this piece. :). With regards to the deli paper - I would use wet strength tissue paper instead ❤
